Inclination Sensor and Intrusion Sensor
In addition to the standard theft-deterrent
system features, this system may also have
an inclination sensor and intrusion sensor.
The inclination sensor can activate the alarm
if it senses movement of the vehicle, such
as a change in vehicle orientation.
The intrusion sensor monitors the vehicle
interior, and can activate the alarm if it
senses unauthorized entry into the vehicle’s
interior. Do not allow passengers or pets to
remain in the vehicle when the intrusion
sensor is activated.
Before arming the theft-deterrent system
and activating the intrusion sensor:
.Make sure both doors and windows are
completely closed.
.Secure any loose items such as
sunshades.
.Make sure there are no obstructions
blocking the sensors.
Intrusion and Inclination Sensors Disable
Switch
It is recommended that the intrusion and
inclination sensors be deactivated if pets are
left in the vehicle or if the vehicle is being
transported.

Front Lift System
A two-position lift actuator (one per damper)
with 35 mm (1.5 in) of stroke will
hydraulically raise the front of the vehicle to
provide approximately 50 mm (2 in) of
increased clearance in approximately
three seconds (height and time will vary by
vehicle). The Front Lift System will allow
you to lift the front of the vehicle to enter a
driveway, driving over curbs, speed bumps
or onto ramps or a trailer.
To use the Front Lift System, press the
button on the center console to raise or
lower the vehicle. This feature can be
operated at speeds up to 38 km/h (24 mph)
when the engine is running. The system
functions based on the vehicle’s state or
operating mode:
.The system will not raise up when the
doors or underhood storage compartment
is open.
.The system can be raised or lowered by
the pushbutton, when the vehicle is in
RUN or in accessory mode.
.If the vehicle is in the raised position and
is driven at speeds above 38 km/h
(24 mph), it will automatically lower.
.If the vehicle is turned off, it will
automatically lower.
.If a vehicle door is opened during
lowering, the movement will pause for
15 seconds then continue to lower, but at
a slower rate.
If equipped, the front height can be raised
automatically using GPS navigation in the
vehicle. The vehicle will automatically lift in
up to 1,000 programmable locations. Once
the button is pushed, a notification will
appear on the Driver Information Center
(DIC) and prompt the driver if they would
like to “Remember” the location. The driver
can select this function through the steering
wheel controls, see Steering Wheel Controls
0 119.
The driver can also delete stored locations
for the automatic lift.
If the vehicle is raised automatically using
GPS, it will automatically lower once the
vehicle is located about 60 meters (197 feet)
from the programmed location. To disable
this function, turn off the GPS location via
the vehicle Customization Settings. The Front
Lift System will now only operate using the
pushbutton command, and the “Auto Lift
Location Remembered” confirmation
message will not display.

Performance Driving
If equipped, Competitive Driving mode,
Performance Traction Management (PTM),
and Launch Control are systems designed to
allow increased performance while
accelerating and/or cornering. This is
accomplished by regulating and optimizing
the engine, brakes, and suspension performance. These modes are for use at a
closed course race track and are not
intended for use on public roads. They will
not compensate for driver inexperience or
lack of familiarity with a race track.
Drivers who prefer to allow the system to
have more control of the engine, brakes,
and suspension are advised to turn on the
normal traction control and StabiliTrak/
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) systems on.
If equipped with E-Ray, there is a
Performance app on the infotainment screen
that shows the vehicle electric and engine
power/torque. See
“E-Ray Performance App”
later in this section for more information.
E-Ray Performance App
If equipped with E-Ray, to access the
Performance App, select the performance
app icon on the infotainment screen. The
landing screen of the Performance app is the
gauges page.
Gauges
The Gauges page shows the Electric
Power/Torque on the left gauge and the
engine power/torque on the right gauge.
Units of power or torque can be chosen at
the bottom of the page. The center of the
page is a wireframe view of the vehicle that
illuminates the front and/or rear axle as
each propulsion system is being used. The
brighter the wireframe display the more
power/torque is being provided.
